Its about looking at your racing files and seeing what the torque value was at critical sections. then matching that torque in training. Of course if you have an InfoCrank, like me, you can see the torque value on the phone app whilst riding, obviously on the IDT. For example when I ride a pursuit on the track, I can see from my race file my torque value as being 40nM, at 115rpm. So I emulate that value on my indoor trainer, but riding with different cadence values, ie 60/80/90/100/110 etc This allows for more precise training stimulus as I am focusing directly on that particular torque value, but with different heart rates. higher the cadence the higher the heart rate. if you are able to go on the road and ride at exactly the same cadence and power output as the critical race section mentioned above then just do that. Only problem is then you only see after downloading the file where the values are, whereas with the InfoCrank and App you see in real time. This is based on my own personal views and experience
